00:36 — Acceleration Economy recently launched a series of top 10 lists focusing on key enablers in AI/hyperautomation, cybersecurity and data modernization. Kieron asks Toni to give viewers an idea of what the AI/hyperautomation top 10 shortlist is.
01:11 — The top 10 shortlist is sort of a watch list – these are the companies to keep an eye on as they continue to innovate, Toni suggests. Acceleration Economy takes a unique approach to covering these companies as the analysts share stories from within each company and how their technologies and solutions are impacting customers
02:00 — What does it take to make the top 10 shortlist? What qualities are analysts looking for in organizations? The shortlisted companies come from diverse backgrounds, notes Ronak. At the heart of hyper-automation is robotic process automation (RPA), which has always been the focus of a few companies on the top 10 shortlist and remains their primary strength. A key quality for making the list is that companies focus on their strengths, build on them, and continue to embed elements of AI and machine learning (ML) within them. Companies such as UiPath, Automation Anywhere and Celonis should be highlighted. Ronak adds that the top 10 list is a great combination of companies focused on hyper-automation, process mining, RPA, automation, and AI.
03:14 — Toni states that all companies share the quality of “unremitting customer orientation”. On each company’s website, users can find case studies that showcase customer success stories. Additionally, all of these companies operate in different vertical industries, but all maintain a specific focus on customers.
04:19 — What can Acceleration Economy readers learn from following these companies? For companies looking to move forward, Toni advises that business leaders look for ways to integrate these services and platforms into their own organizations. Acceleration Economy analysts will not only share examples of customer successes in upcoming reports, analysis and videos, but will also define the “why” and the “how” of these companies – one of the overarching themes of Acceleration Economy.
05:38 — How will the analysts judge which companies will stay on the shortlist and which companies will leave? Ronak notes that those companies that continually update themselves based on the market perspective will remain. Ultimately, these companies must focus on solving customers’ problems. He notes two aspects that will keep companies on the shortlist:
- focus on their strengths
- Involve and engage communities
At Acceleration Economy, analysts continue to share their perspectives because analysts are members of those specific industries working with those technologies and providing feedback to the companies.
